Ray marching is a technique for rendering a 3D scene onto a 2D screen. As the name suggests, a bundle of rays marches incrementally, checking for intersections with objects. This post will walk through how to implement ray marching in GLSL step by step, covering topics such as distance maps, n...
Cellular noise partitions space based on the distance to a set of seed points, producing organic, cell-like patterns. It finds applications in computer graphics, natural simulations, and generative art. In this post, we explore several variations of the cellular noise implemented in GLSL: Voro...
In this post, I explored the randomness of pseudo-random sequences generated by different functions: sinusoidal, power, and linear. By examining the histogram and autocorrelation of these sequences using MATLAB, I demonstrated how sinusoidal and power functions exhibit more randomness than a s...
This post explains how to configure a debugging environment in Visual Studio Code (VS Code). While the settings described are for macOS, they can be easily adapted for Windows with minimal changes, such as the compiler. VS Code uses tasks.json and launch.json for build and debug configurations...
Projecting a 3D object onto a 2D plane often involves transforming geometric equations into a perspective view. Here’s a fun observation: when you view a parabolic curve drawn on the xz-plane from the xy-plane through a perspective projection, the curve can appear as an ellipse. The animation ...
